good location, free parking, good breakfast

The spectacular view is second to none.
We upgraded our room to have a view directly from the bed. Well worth the money. The room was spotless. Large. Well appointed bathroom. Restaurant staff were awesome ( as was the buffet!)
Nothing.

The hotel has amazing view of Mt Cook, great location, also very close to Hooker Valley.
The restaurants and cafe could really improve a bit more, it’s quite an expensive place after all. We booked a premium plus King room and to be honest the room is not very spacious, there’s not enough space to just lay down suitcases.

위치가 아주 좋았고 방에서 보이는 뷰도 아주 좋았습니다. 저녁 뷔페도 종류도 다양하고 나쁘지 않았다. 방은 깨끗하고 따뜻했음.
체크인 시 직원이 기계적이고 불친절했음. 날씨에 따른 입산가능여부에 답변이 미비했고, 저녁 식사 예약도 8시 밖에 안된다고 했으나 실제 레스토랑에서는 그 전에도 가능했음.

Great value buffet
Amazing view from the room
We were told that we would be rung about the availability and cost of charging our EV. We didn't receive a call.
I think this is going to increase as an issue, so perhaps you should front foot it and also aim to make it free or close to it.

Nice view good location friendly staff
4.1
We had a small but comfy room with a great view. The ranch slider opening out onto cobbled space was a welcome bonus. The bed was ok. Everything was clean and comfortalbe. I was sceptical about the buffet for breakfast and dinner as that was all that was available, and while it was relatively expensive pp, the food quality was actually very high and it didn't dissapoint. For someone that doesn't like buffet I was impressed! I also found all the staff encredibly helpful and friendly.

Layout was tricky
Water pressure in the shower was lacking
4.1
Staff were friendly and helpful, the location is perfect, the outside of the facilities is gorgeous. Food in Buffet was superb. The doc station is the best I have seen.
Very dated on the inside, which conflicts with to modern exterior. Bathroom doors are louvred and afford no protection from sounds or smells. Mattresses were the worst I have ever slept on- bouncing like a waterbed and sliding off the box Springs. Only one restaurant and one cafe were open without any notification on the website that these would be closed. And despite being a hotel that exists for the natural beauty and hikes- no spa, no sauna, no jacuzzi, no swimming pool. With the sore muscles from and physical exhaustion from doing the outdoor activities, this hotel desperately needs something of a spa at the least. Very over priced. The museum is overpriced and a joke. Should be free with as little as is there.

Amazing views of Mount Cook and the mountains, very central to all the walks, great bar to have a drink after a walk and watch the views. Breakfast and Dinner buffets were surprisingly good, for a buffet.
Rooms were small. Fine for 1 night but doesn't encourage a longer stay if there are a family of 4.
4.1
The breakfast and dinner buffet was awesome, the staff were very friendly and the view out of the window is marvelous. There was some hair on the tub but apart from that it was a great stay.
Some pubic hair on the tub

Amazing location !
Our room view was a bit disappointing. We also didn’t have an outside bench to use.
Another restaurant option would have been nice. Buffet was ordinary unfortunately.
